the thing you have to understand about european football it's that the teams have so much history that it never is just about the fans or just about the players, because each team is seen as if it (the team by itself even without the people) had its own spirit, so both the players and the fans kind of have to "honor" that spirit. The players by doing the best they can on the field. And the fans by being there come what may. Also there are two levels to being a fan of the team. There are the normal fans and then there are the "ultras" who usually see themselves as some kind of warrior in charge of both defending the team and cheering for it

The first clip featuring the "tomahawk chop" is at Doak Campbell Stadium - home of the Florida State University Seminoles football team. The tomahawk chop and war chant were started at Florida State. After it had been around for some time, Florida State had a player named Deion Sanders who played football and baseball. After he left college and went into professional football and baseball, he went to the Atlanta Braves baseball team and they adopted the chop and war chant. The professional football team, the Kansas City Chiefs, essentially "borrowed" it after that. But that shows how big college football is in the U.S. - when professional teams appropriate traditions started by university athletics.

[@davidlogan8580]

The first tomahawk chop was actually Florida State Seminoles (college football). Also college stadiums hold approximately 80,000 people, however, that varies on how big the football program is. The "power 5" conferences naturally have larger stadiums because they make more money than other conferences.

[@hannahb.375]

Yeah BDS seats 100k and even when the game starts and the stadium is packed, the whole city is still jammed in the bars and on the quad because people literally drive to town just to watch at a bar and be there. It’s similar at other big schools I think as well

[@davehopkin9502]

I think a large part of it is a) Relegation from leagues, in Europe if you end the season in the bottom part of the league you get relegated to a lower league - so there is real jeapordy in not doing well and hence the fans get very agitated b) In the US the teams are franchises and can (and do) b moved from place to place, in Europe a team is fixed very very firmly in a city and part of that city to move it elsewhere would be unthinkable

[@philipmcniel4908]

But a lot of the American clips were from college football, where the teams have deep roots (sometimes predating the NFL!) and never move. I think to understand the origins of American sporting culture, you have to delve into old-time baseball culture since it predates anything else in American sports.

@@Seb_edits457 The history of MLB is older than anything in European sports; the National League (which is part of MLB) is the oldest currently-contested professional sports league in the world, having been contested since 1876. It's true that American football has grown to eclipse baseball during the Super Bowl era (but only in the US--baseball has grown massively in other countries such as Japan during that time), but baseball has a LOT of history in some US cities. For instance, the Boston Red Sox have been using the same ground since 1916--something few storied European football clubs can claim. As for college football, which (unlike the NFL) was highly popular well before the 1960s, there's actually a lot of history that people care about. Notre Dame fans, for instance, still know the meaning of "Win one for the Gipper," a line that their then-head coach is said to have used to rally the team back in 1928!

Also, of note, was the Seattle Seahawks playoff game in 2010 that resulted in the "Beast Quake", where former runningback Marshawn Lynch, nicknamed "Beast Mode" had a legendary rushing play that resulted in the crowd erupting so loud that it registered on a local seismograph as an "earthquake".

It's no different in Europe. You'll be patted down by the club's staff, etc... otherwise you've just never been to Europe. I think even if people are not controlled in America, there will be no ultras or hooligans like in Europe. The mentality is just completely different. In Europe, the teams are on their own and have members. In the usa, you're basically a fan of a team that's in a company, for example the nhl. In the usa, there is a lot of show, but the most important thing is a lot of show and advertising. As a fan you are shown a lot so you can go to a game without liking the game but feeling entertained. Which is not possible in europe because they have a lot more emotional fans.

[@santitortosa2700]

My intention is not to offend, but simply to think that the USA is a safer country than Europe, from Spain to Sweden, I assure you that there is not a single school with an arch to detect firearms, or shootings in supermarkets or gangs armed with military weapons on the streets You can ask many of your compatriots who live in Europe with their children, not because they don't love the USA, because they are panicking In European stadiums they even remove the cap from plastic water bottles, prohibited cans, glass bottles, flags that advocate Nazism, Islamism, etc. But all this does not mean that people leave their voices shouting, singing, jumping, the avengers are prohibited in the stadiums that light up and are closed for a few games. If it is true that the European clubs have the Ultras Tifossi Hooligans etc and that they stick together in the street, when the police arrive on horseback, they clear the area, they stop some and they are prohibited from entering any sports venue in Europe

[@philipmcniel4908]

@@janicjost3788 IMO in Europe a lot of the top teams aren't really different in the US, except that they don't have as close of business ties with the league (and the different leagues are all under the auspices of one federation, whereas American leagues tend to be entirely self-governing). For instance, Manchester United or Chelsea FC are owned by wealthy businessmen, and when they play each other there's a "show" element to it. Now, German and some Spanish teams are a bit different; for instance, I know Germany has the 50+1 rule, though RB Leipzig is kinda stretching it to its limits and I know everyone hates them for it (even American teams don't have as close of ties with non-sports companies as that team has with Red Bull). That being said, even in Germany and Spain the mega-clubs are largely businesses with their own branding. The thing about the US is that there are a lot of things that differentiate it from European sports, but some don't come up very often. For instance, professional teams _can_ move from one city to another, but it doesn't happen all that often, and it just never will happen with some teams: For instance, the Boston Red Sox have been playing in the same stadium since 1912. And of course college football teams never move, because that would mean moving _a whole university!_ I think that in general, American sports fans attend games because they really do like to watch the sport, not just because of the spectacle. That's why they mainly tend to be loud when something exciting happens in the game (e.g. the Beastquake, or Cal Raleigh's home run last year that sent the Mariners to the MLB playoffs for the first time in over 20 years). It's just that for the most part, American culture is to actually care about people you don't really know (which comes across as fake to Europeans when they visit!), and that applies to opposing fans. At the end of the day, they're just regular people who go to work during the week and then watch their favorite team on the weekends just like you; while you might give them stick for liking a different team, the animosity isn't real, and you wouldn't want to do something to seriously hurt them in "real life." We have a saying about sports in general in the US: "It's just a game!" p.s. If you _really_ want to understand American sporting culture and its origins--before the modern glamor and commercialism--you should look into the old-time baseball culture, which predates anything else we have in American sports.

If you can get to a college game, I'd recommend that, and researching the best tailgating schools where you're going to be near. Plenty of folks here to help you decide on the best game to attend, insights you won't find on the web, and they'll all be more than happy to help you choose! Love seeing your young family interact with each other, it brings back memories of my 3, now grown. Until the next!

[@bcfcbennjy99]

Yeah we don't do tailgating or anything like that. Football in Europe is about socialising in bars before and after games. The main high point for a true fan is away days, going to another teams city as an away supporter and taking over the city. Its very much based in history of regions and towns that have been rivals and that culture is now shown in die hard support for your local team from day 1 until death. Its the religion. I wouldn't mind experiencing a tailgate party in the NFL but I feel it is very low-key compared to what we are brought up with.

[@andrewjackson8421]

One of the big differences I noticed having been to sporting events in both is that in Europe you often have nearly equal size crowds for both teams, like maybe a 60:40 split at the worst, but in American games usually one team, the home team, has a sizable advantage with fans, like a 90:10 split at best for the visitors. The exception would be the Super Bowl because that is usually held in a neutral city. But if you are a visiting fan, you can cheer but unless you’re stupid, you don’t jeer the home team or the home team fans will forcibly remove you from the stadium and you won’t look pretty. So you just know, if you’re rooting for the visiting team, keep it civil. They call it home team advantage for a reason. The University of Michigan (Wolverines) stadium, aka The Big House, that they showed is the 3rd largest in the world and the largest outside of Asia with a capacity of 107,601 people, but in 2013 in a game against the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame, they crammed in 115,109. The Stadium was built in such a way that over the years it can be expanded and eventually they expect to get it up to a capacity of 150,000. A couple other big games that were held in The Big House include the 2014 NHL Winter Classic, an outdoor hockey game in the winter, that was also a regular season NHL game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Detroit Red Wings with an official attendance of 105,491, a record for a hockey game. Additionally, a 2014 International Champions Cup soccer match between Real Madrid and Manchester United had an attendance of 109,318, a record crowd for a soccer match in the United States. As for loud outdoor stadiums, since September 2014, Chiefs fans have been recognized by Guinness World Records as the loudest fan base in the world among outdoor stadiums, reaching 142.2dB. Both Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri and The Big House in Ann Arbor, Michigan will host games in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Well that only happens because Philly fans are notorious for being bad fans. If you’re in the group, anyone else wearing an Eagles jersey is family.

The difference you said about the fights in America vs Europe was spot on. In America, there's usually not too many away fans at the stadium because the country is so big so it's hard to travel sometimes. Also, there's not dedicated sections for most away fans so they're spread out through the stadium. Both of these (smaller away crowd + spread throughout stadium) help avoid these mass confrontations between opposing fans. This lack of herd courage prevents large fights from happening very well. We do have this large fights happen but they are extremely rare and still much smaller than the famous European fights. That being said, I've never been to a game in Europe and I am absolutely dying to go because that atmosphere looks incredible.

Here in Europe we do a lot of crazy things and some do things that the rest of us don't like like fighting after a foreball match and throwing different things at others (Holligans). But not everyone makes only a few pieces. The start of your video where you talk about the fans wearing a towel, I can't really see it, but here in Europe we use something we call a scarf that we use to swing around above our heads when we cheer on our team. Your son talks about thinking that the stands are made of concrete - he is right, most stadiums are made of concrete, which makes it safer for many people to jump on the stands without anything happening. The red lights you can see in the video are something we call Rommerlys - it's not dangerous, but it can cause a lot of smoke. I hope you have learned a little more about how football is in Europe - and yes, in Europe it is called Soccer. Kind regards, Pierre from Denmark.
